cases, the wife refused to testify, after having
sworn the warrant for his arrest, but the con-

was evidence enough Mayor Denny has de-

THE SMART-FARM GUSHER.
Its Flow Continues to Increase-Advantage
of Natural Gas in Other Cities.

The Smart-farm we'll showed decided i'm
provement in the flow of gas yesterday The
flame increased to fifty-fvs feet 1t is regarded
as very good flow, and while some of the
guesses at its capacity are extravagant, the
directors consider it equal to the Harris farm
discovery. Additional wells will be drilled at
once in the vicinity of the Smart gusber.
Charles A Sudlow in a recent visit to Wheel
ing. w. Va. received some Information on the
subject of natural gas that may be added to the
knowledge that is now being accumulated and
